Divya Delhi: Cricket Australia (CA) CEO Todd Greenberg wants Virat Kohli in the BBL. Jemimah Rodrigues, Smriti Mandhana, Deepti Sharma, Shikha Pandey, and Harmanpreet Kaur have participated in the WBBL, although the BCCI prohibits men. Indian players in international T20 leagues must retire from all Indian teams. Greenberg believes Kohli in the BBL will boost attendance and viewership. BCCI prohibits Indian men's squad from playing in other T20 leagues. The board worries that overseas competitions like IPL could hurt its revenues and player development. Another reason is that the BCCI aims to strengthen domestic events like the Ranji Trophy and Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. These competitions are competitive and maintained by top players. Often, like Australia's Big Bash League (BBL), abroad T20 leagues occur when India is playing domestic cricket. It begins in the third week of December, when the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy is in its final stages.
